Just as the raven stalks the narrator of “The Raven” with “Nevermore,” so, too, does a pesky ghost plague the heroine of Vera Brosgol’s graphic novel Anya’s Ghost. Edgar Allan Poe fans will enjoy how Blake makes her ghost a complex and contradictory character. (If you’re getting Supernatural vibes, you’re not alone!) Tracking and killing spirits should be no big deal, but the elusive ghost Anna Korlov, aka “Anna Dressed in Blood,” proves far harder to eliminate…especially when morally ambiguous Anna challenges Cas’s beliefs about good and evil. Cas travels across the country with his witchy mom and their ghost-sensing kitty. Kendare Blake’s Anna Dressed in Blood is narrated by Cas, a hunter of ghosts like his family before him. This modern gothic classic will have you sleeping with the lights on.
